Amazon Cloud Drive

Amazon offers free 5GB cloud drive at free of cost https://www.amazon.com/clouddrive/learnmore . You can save your documents, music and video files. Addition to this, you can directly play your music files without downloading. This feature is currently available only for US customer. Amazon may start this service for world wide.  If you are willing to use more than 5 GB, Amazon will charge you as per storage choice. I remember few years back I used to keep my documents in www.xdrive.com.  What is difference between them and Amazon? Just few features, more memory, cloud (music) player and you can directly purchase the music albums from Amazon store and copy them to cloud drive.  Some old wine in new sexy bottle. That’s all!

But, here we can keep old database contents as it is when you reinstall the vCenter software. This document using vCenter 4.0 and SQLEXPRESS 2005 (built in) database. At the time of installation of vCenter 4.0, it installs SQLEXPRESS 2005 by default unless any other Database specified. Mostly, we are using built-in database is SQLEXPRESS 2005 for testing environment. When you install vCenter 4.0, it installs SQLEXPRESS 2005 and creates a database called "SQLEXP_VIM".

This need to be entered thru command line via ESXi host or Windows Hyper-V. This article talks about ESXi host only. Login to ESXi thru SSH client. Run the following command to enter the VLAN ID (we assume that you already configured IP Address) ~ # /ipmitool lan set 1 vlan id 333 ~ # /ipmitool lan print1 Set in Progress         : Set Complete Auth Type Support       : NONE MD2 MD5 PASSWORD  Auth Type Enable        : Callback : MD2 MD5 PASSWORD                          : User     : MD2 MD5 PASSWORD                          : Operator : MD2 MD5 PASSWORD                          : Admin    : MD2 MD5 PASSWORD                          : OEM      : MD2 MD5 PASSWORD  IP Address Source       : Static Address IP Address              : xx.xx.xx.xx Subnet Mask             : 255.255.254.0 MAC

Changing Thin to Thick disk and vice-versa

You can change the existing Virtual Hard disks (VMware based) from Thick to thin and vice-versa. This can be achieved by either using VMotion/SVMotion or command line tool called " vmkfstools". Using VMotion/SVMotion is required a valid license. Select “Migrate” and choose “Change Datastore” and select the Disk format. If you don’t have a VMotion/SVMotion license, use the following command to achieve the same. From Thick to Thin: vmkfstools –i "Thickdisk.vmdk" -d thin "Thindisk.vmdk" It will start to clone to virtual hard disk in Thin Provision method. After completed, you can attach this disk with VM and power it on. If all looks good, you can delete the original thick disk from the data store. Use the following command to see real-time usage of thin disk: du –h "Thindisk.vmdk" You can notice the big difference of disk usage between of Thin and Thick format disks. From Thin to Thick: vmkfstools –i "Thindisk.vmdk" -d zeroedthick "T
